Damaramu 0 Report post Posted June 27, 2005 I saw the Nekromantix the other night and they were just plain awesome. I really really enjoyed the concert and the genre of music in general. Who else has ever heard them? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest wayzing Report post Posted June 27, 2005 Aaah, they're awesome! I really envy you for getting to see them perform live. Does he still use that coffin shaped bass? They're Danish, and I live in Denmark. When I first discovered their music I really wanted to see them live so I was quite disappointed to hear they live in the US (California?). My band is called The Resistance and we made a song called Nekrosistance as a tribute to this great band that I've never seen or met Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He poured beer on it and licked it off too. That was cool. He also made a gay joke to my friend. My friend was having him sign his back patch and he walked up and bent over and Nekroman goes "Is that an offer?" and my other friend goes "He loves the cock!" and Nekroman goes "Whoa guys I was just kidding! I'm only on tour for 3 months. Not that desperate yet." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest wayzing Report post Posted June 28, 2005 Your friend sitting in a bar 40 years from now: "You know, young man, I once spoke to the great Nekroman". Young man in bar: "Wow! That's awesome. What did you say to him?" Your friend: "He loves the cock" Young man in bar: "Check, please". Sounds like a great show. What other bands within the genre do you like?

Damaramu 0 Report post Posted June 28, 2005 The only other Psychobilly bands I've really heard are Tiger Army and The Cramps....I love both bands. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest BrokenWings Report post Posted June 28, 2005 Nekroman also plays guitar for the Horrorpops, which is a psychobilly band fronted by two females. They have two go-go dancers who tour with them, too. They're pretty cool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Corey_Lazarus 0 Report post Posted June 29, 2005 I greatly dislike the Horrorpops, yet loved every Nekromantix I've heard (which, admittedly, isn't much). Don't like The Cramps too much, though, besides "Surfing Dead." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest wayzing Report post Posted June 29, 2005 I greatly dislike the Horrorpops, yet loved every Nekromantix I've heard Wow. Strong words. I've never heard the Horrorpops. What are they like? Btw. Has anyone heard of a band called Ad Sin? They're on a compilation I have. They play an incredible version of Turbonegro's "Rock Against Ass". Tried to google them but they're hard to find apparantly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest BrokenWings Report post Posted June 30, 2005 I'd personally recommend "Where They Wander", "Julia", and "Kool Flaptop", if you're looking at getting into the Horrorpops. I think the rockabilly genre is generally hit or miss, and I didn't like the HP on first listen, so I understand where Corey's coming from. I didn't care for them much at all until they came through town. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Corey_Lazarus 0 Report post Posted June 30, 2005 "Who Killed The Cheerleader?" is a must-have by the Nekromantix. I just don't like the Horrorpops, and I don't know why, but there's nothing about them I really can sink my teeth into. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just don't like the Horrorpops, and I don't know why, but there's nothing about them I really can sink my teeth into. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I think "Trick of Treat" is my favourite Nekromantix track. I found two Horrorpops tracks on Pure Volume (which seems to be my new favourite site btw) and they were ok, but I kept listening for the cocky swagger of Nekromatix. Kinda unfair I guess, since they're two different bands. So no one has any info about Ad Sin, then? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
